Tigershark Publishing is a new, small-press e-publishing venture from DS Davidson: author, poet, regular contributor to established UK press Atlantean Publishing and elsewhere in the small presses, and previously editor of the first eighteen issues of Garbaj magazine.
Established in 2013, it will be releasing a hopefully regular e-zine for short fiction and poetry, Tigershark, in pdf format, approximately four times yearly; the issues so far are available to download for free from this site. The press may be venturing into collections and other formats at a future date.
Currently the press is open to submissions in any style or genre at the above-right email address — flash fiction, short fiction and non-fiction up to 5000 words, with those in the 1000 to 3000 words range being best placed for acceptance. Poetry of any length will be considered, and we are always on the lookout for artwork. See our guidelines for more details of themes and submission dates.
